Hello Dev,
Should you create an Alias of miner, open SSH server, create an viewable user to monitor miner in LAN network?
My rig is restart several time per day. It may be OC problem, hardware problem (riser,...) power problem. However, by using web interface, I cannot identify which card raise these error. So I prefer to monitor my rig with the output of miner.
Manny thanks,
Hi kermex529, I'm just a fellow user here but I think this may help. You can simply ssh into your mining rig from another computer and continuously tail out the log from /root/miner/{directory of the miner you are using}. When your rig eventually reboots, your ssh session will loose connection. Then simply scroll up through your buffer to read the output of what it was last doing just before the reboot. Often one of your GPUs would have dropped to 0 hashes just before the reboot which should help you determine which card to troubleshoot.
Yes can you please tell steps on how to? I am wondering as well thanks
Sorry for the delayed response I've been in the hospital. Here are the steps broken down more:
1. If using a Windows computer, download and install putty. You can find it using google.
2. Log into your rig with putty. The IP address of your rig is shown on the simplemining website on the riglist page -- simply hover your mouse over the name of your rig and it will show the IP address. The username and password to use are mentioned in Gravitymaster’s SimpleMining OS FAQ
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SvtkI_ZCHAxqbIsaWnuA81hRbI3Tp2Zf3iyEQlORLTU/edit3. You will need to know what miner you are using. To find this, log into the simplemining website. On the rig groups page, click the miner programs button and look for which one has the dot in front of it. You should already be familiar with this page as you had to set it up when you started using simplemining.
4. Change into the directory of the miner you are using. For example, if you are using claymore-eth-v9.7 , you would type "cd /root/miner/claymore-eth-v9.7/"
5. Find out the name of your log file. You can do this by typing "ls". Look for a filename containing the phrase log or txt.
6. Continuously output the log file to your putty window. For example, if your log file is named 1505187735_log.txt, you would type "tail -f 1505187735_log.txt"
7. Leave it running. Take a look at it again in a couple hours. If it lost connection, leave putty open and scroll up through the text to look for any error messages or any lines which show the hash rates of each of your cards and see if one of they dropped to 0 hashes.
I would recommend getting a book on Linux and familiarize yourself at least with the most commonly used shell commands.
